The PROACTIVE (People Reaching Out Actively Coming Together Increasing Voter Empowerment) Project Inc.
 

The Grand Rapids PROACTIVE Project is an inspiring non-profit dedicated to improving community well-being in Grand Rapids. It was established to promote a proactive approach to social challenges. The organization actively engages local residents in collaborative initiatives that drive positive change. Through its wide range of programs and outreach efforts, the PROACTIVE Project addresses important issues like education, health, and social justice, ensuring every community voice is valued. 

To grasp the vision behind the PROACTIVE Project, it is essential to explore its core elements. This initiative is driven by actively identifying community concerns through direct feedback, data analysis, and collaboration with local organizations. It encourages residents to get involved in shaping their neighborhoods, resulting in a government that responds better to their needs.

A major goal of the PROACTIVE Project is to create an inclusive environment where every resident feels their voice matters. For instance, the city plans to conduct regular surveys and host community forums to gather insights on what residents prioritize. In the past year alone, similar initiatives in other cities have achieved participation rates of over 60% when they engage residents through various outreach activities. This feedback loop is crucial for establishing transparency and building trust between the community and local government.

Our Story

Empowering Communities Through Civic Engagement

Founded in 2004, PROACTIVE is a non-partisan coalition of community organizations and churches dedicated to voter mobilization. Over the years, we have become the leading third-party challenger during elections, known for protecting the integrity of the electoral process. Through the commitment of our volunteers, we have continued to monitor elections, register voters, and educate and mobilize the community to ensure every voice is heard.

Our mission goes beyond elections. We focus on building long-term civic engagement, empowering marginalized communities, and advocating for policies that promote social and economic equity. By equipping individuals with the tools to participate fully in society, we strive to create a future where every person has a stake in the decisions that shape their community.
